Playstyle
Launchers aren't about precision — they're about denying space. A well-placed shot can wipe out multiple grouped enemies or force a squad out of cover entirely. The tradeoff is real risk: slow fire rate and blast radius mean a poorly timed shot (or one fired too close) can hurt you as much as your target.
Strengths & Weaknesses
-
✅ Devastating against grouped enemies or fortified positions
-
✅ Can force opponents out of cover or off a contested area
-
❌ Slow firing style leaves you vulnerable between shots
-
❌ Dangerous at close range due to blast radius
